2 EMT(Emergency Mapping Team) EMT Activities Activity starts: The evening of March 11 Organization:The headquarters is Cabinet Office. Approximately 250 volunteers were bound together on the Internet and put disaster map information on base map information in improving and expressed Mash up. 2

3 Background Purpose of EMT The need of the information collection(information is full of the Internet) Visualization of the offer information(the need of the map information) Situation guess based on geospatial information Purpose Visualization with the map information at the country level Visualization with the map information at the prefecture level Visualization with the map information to support the onsite activity ALL311 3

4 Spatial information of ALL311 What is CRISIS Mapping? The crisis mapping expresses the critical situation with natural disaster and the act of man in a map, and it is called it to support the field indirectly. Web page was established at 18:00 on March 11 Approximately 600 volunteers gather and send the damage situation, refuge information, relief supplies information with a format with a coordinate of the Excel. The map information put Mash up on a base map in improving using WMS and expressed it. 4

5 Spatial information of CRISIS Mapping What is Participatory GIS? Participatory GIS is an emergent practice in its own right; developing out of participatory approaches to planning and spatial information and communication management (Rambaldi and Weiner 2004) In Japan, participatory GIS construction of the field of natural environments using the Internet was it in a trial from the mid-1990s. However, the Internet of that time did not increase the user because the information transmission speed of the line being slow, GUI of the hardware were poor. In addition, because the environmental information contributed to participatory GIS by the expert of the field of natural environments did not have a check function, we received an evaluation that reliability was low, and the example of the system decreased. 5

6 What is VGI? Volunteered geographic information (VGI) is the harnessing of tools to create, assemble, and disseminate geographic data provided voluntarily by individuals (M.Goodchild) The history of the Japanese GIS volunteer 1995: Hanshin, Awaji great earthquake disaster (referencing the old topology by GIS, debris quantity calculation, quantity of debris movement management) 2004: Niigata Chuetsu earthquake (affliction certificate issuance) 2007: Noto Peninsula earthquake (affliction certificate issuance) 2007: Niigata Chuetsu Oki earthquake (Niigata prefecture announces restoration, the rehabilitation process of the prefecture in GIS, and local governments and villages use GIS for affliction certificate issuance) The number of the buildings in the evacuation directive area (building spot numbers) EMT 作成 6
